In context
3Let the day perish in which I was born, And that night in which they said, Behold a man-child!
4Let that night be darkness, And let not the Lord regard it from above, Neither let light come upon it.
— Job 3:5 —
6Let that day and night be cursed, Let darkness carry them away; Let it not come into the days of the year, Neither let it be numbered with the days of the months.
7But let that night be pain, And let not mirth come upon it, nor joy.
